PANews reported on December 5 that according to Yahoo News, Taiwan's well-known "anti-fraud goddess" Chen Meihui was involved in a leak case and unfortunately died in a car accident on the Hsinchu section of National Highway 1 in the early hours of yesterday morning. She was only 35 years old and left behind two young daughters. Chen Meihui has long served as a blockchain financial crime investigator for the XREX virtual currency exchange, assisting the police in combating fraud crimes. Her sudden death has caused shock and anger in the society and the police.
According to reports, the Taichung District Prosecutor's Office received a report accusing Chen Meihui of leaking information by analyzing the investigation data provided by her boyfriend, a police officer named Xie from the Criminal Investigation Bureau's Technology Crime Prevention Center. The two were taken back for questioning and released on bail of NT$30,000 to return home, but a fatal car accident occurred on the way. The Criminal Investigation Bureau expressed deep dissatisfaction with the case, questioning the motivation for the report and the fairness of the judicial system, and believed that the report on Chen Meihui was a stigmatization of anti-fraud workers.
Chen Meihui was hailed as Taiwan's top expert in the field of virtual currency crime tracking. During her lifetime, she was enthusiastic about charity and promoted a number of anti-fraud initiatives, including the development of virtual currency tracking software and resource integration.
